It is essential to be on guard against others.

Temple planning is always temple planning, so Wang Jun still made some preparations, using rafts and heavy ships to clear the way in front of him to prevent the Wu army from having any ideas underwater.

The entire river was stable and passed safely.

All the anxiety in Wang Jun's heart disappeared.

The Qin army passed through Lexiang and reached the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. It is self-evident what it means.

A large banner with the word "Qin" was hung on the warship, and the war drums were beating in unison, shouting and cheering, and the sound shook the north and south of the Yangtze River.

The governor of Xiakou stayed in Xian. Pingxi General Shi Hong was alarmed and doubtful. He suspected that Lu Kang had surrendered to Qin or that Lu Kang had been defeated by the Qin army. Wang Jun made a decisive decision and drove the navy to attack the city. Yu Zhong, the prefect of Jiangxia, introduced troops to help. Wang Jun He was ambushed and captured in a battle, and Xiakou surrendered.

The Qin army was so powerful that it was like a tiger rushing into a flock of sheep. It was invincible and could not be defeated without bloodshed. The cities in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River either surrendered or were captured.

Wang Jun took advantage of the situation to recruit the Jiangdong navy, read out the Qin Dynasty's proclamation to the south of the Yangtze River, and promised to divide the land and exempt from taxes after destroying Wu.

The people in the south of the Yangtze River responded to the Qin army one after another, taking boats and rafts to join the Eastern Expedition.

In Wuchang, Chaisang and the Wu army were as silent as cicadas, with no one hesitating or resisting.

When the big banner with the word "Qin" arrived, the city gates opened with a bang, powerful men drove sheep and cows to greet them, and the people sent each other off with pots of food and pulp.

Wang Jun governed the army strictly and strictly prohibited his soldiers from harming the people.

The people of Wu respected him more and more.

Wang Jun's men were like snowballs that were getting bigger and bigger. When they reached the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, their flags and armor covered the river with the sky. They were so powerful that everyone who looked at them was scared to death.

Flags with the word "Qin" were hung on the city walls along the river.

However, after entering Jiangdong territory, fewer and fewer Wu troops surrendered.

After making a detailed report, Zhong Hui will move the families of the Wu army generals and soldiers to Ruxuzhou for their care.

One person surrendered and the whole family was beheaded.

Under the pressure, the entire Jiangdong suddenly fell into terror and panic.

The country is about to perish, but not many people are impassioned.

Wang Jun stood on the bow of the ship, looking at the infinite scenery east of the Yangtze River, patting the side of the ship, "A man has no regrets at this point!"

There is only one step left to reach Jianye, and the unparalleled achievements are just around the corner.

"Congratulations, envoy!" Luo Shang appeared behind him at some unknown time, his tone was rather strange.

Wang Jun stared at Luo Shang and suddenly felt that the purpose of Luo Xian sending him was not that simple.

The success of destroying Wu was so great that someone would definitely have other ideas.

You must be on guard against others, and you must not have the intention of harming others.

Wang Jun knew his situation. All power came from the emperor's trust. He had offended many people just by killing powerful nobles in Shandong.

This is a certificate of surrender, and it is also a risky move. Although it successfully gained the emperor's favor, it also laid many hidden dangers.

Therefore, I pay great attention to my personal safety, and the soldiers around me are all loyal and loyal soldiers.

"What's the matter, Major General?"

"Zhong Hui has stationed troops in Ruxuzhou. The river is narrow and there are elite navy defenses. It is difficult to succeed in the waterway. My subordinates requested orders to take the land route from Jing County to Wanling and from south to north to attack Jianye!" Luo Shang's tone was unsatisfactory! It's like I'm here to ask for orders, but to inform you.

Wang Jun frowned, and his good mood suddenly disappeared. He was clearly here to grab credit.

At present, Zhong Hui's army is gathering in large numbers, Jianye is empty, and people in Jiangdong are panicked. As long as the flag of Qin stands under the city, Jianye will surrender without a fight.

The first contributor to the destruction of Wu was Luo Shang!

Wang Jun spent all his money on the front, but the credit belongs to others...

Wang Jun looked at Luo Shang, and Luo Shang also looked at him without courtesy.

Suddenly, Wang Jun smiled, "The young general seems to have underestimated the people in Jiangdong. Wanling is the southwest gateway of Jianye. With Zhong Hui's cunning, there must be strong troops to guard it..."

"We don't need the governor to worry about this matter." Luo Shang was confident and emphasized the word "provincial governor", intending to remind Wang Jun that he did not have the power of a governor and could not control him.

Along the way, Wu Jun watched the wind and descended. Since Wang Jun was marching, Luo Shang felt that he could do it too.

"Then I wish the Major General a successful victory!" Wang Jun sneered.

"My subordinates, please leave." Luo Shang also sneered and bowed his hands.

Fan Tong, the guard of the army, whispered: "Luo Xian is loyal, strong and determined, and has extraordinary talents. I never thought that my nephew would be so unbearable that the king could kill him without obeying the military order."

Wang Jun said with a smile: "This man has great ambitions but little talent, and is greedy. I predict he will be defeated! It's not a bad idea to let him try Jianye's defense."

"Nevertheless, I urge you to make preparations early and report to the court to avoid accountability in the future."

"Not bad." Wang Jun nodded in agreement.

Everyone can ignore it and offend him, but he can't hide anything from the emperor.

Wang Jun's future status all depends on the emperor's trust in him.

Ruxu City.

After receiving the battle report, Zhong Hui finally lost his previous calmness.

If Wang Jun's navy was able to sail down the river, it must have been because of Lu Kang's release.

"We treat Lu Kang like brothers and sisters, why should we abandon each other!" Zhong Hui put his hand on his forehead and lay lazily on the soft bed.

The generals around him all laughed secretly in their hearts.

More than half a year ago, Zhong Hui led an army of 150,000 to force Lu Kang into submission. How could there be such brothers and sisters in the world?

After that, Zhong Hui first granted the title of Duke of Yue and killed the Supreme Emperor Sun Hao.

But the murderer has always been at large.

Although Sun Hao was angry and resentful, he was still the previous emperor of Soochow.

Zhong Hui's actions are the same as those of Sima Zhao back then.

There are storytellers everywhere in Jiangdong, and the scandal of the Sima family is known to the whole world. Zhong Hui has been linked to Sima Zhao, and he will never be able to clean it up in his life.

With so many stains on his body, Lu Kang showed great restraint in not defecting to attack Jianye.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Lu Kang probably hasn't surrendered to the Qin army yet. Wang Jun is coming from far away alone. Ruxuzhou is a copper and iron wall. Jiangdong is safe and sound." Zhong Hui seemed to be talking to himself or to others. .

The water of Chaohu Lake flows to the southeast, passing through the Dongguan between Qibao and Ruxu Mountains, and flows eastward into the river. The Wu people built a city in the north of the river, named Ruxu City. Behind Ruxu City, there is a Ruxu formed by the impact of sand. The island, lying across the middle of the river, is like a natural fortress.

Behind Ruxu lies Stone City and Jianye.

After the Battle of Yiling, Cao Pi became hot-headed and did not attack the extremely weak Shu Kingdom. Instead, he attacked Soochow with heavy troops. At that time, Zhu Huan succeeded Zhou Tai as Ruxu Governor.

Relying on his large number of troops, Cao Ren sent his son Cao Tai to raid Ruxu City. He also sent Chang Diao, Zhuge Qian, Wang Shuang and other generals to take a boat to raid Ruxuzhou where Wu Jun's family members were. He also led 10,000 elite troops to support the attack.

Zhu Huan seized the opportunity, attacked the weakest Cao Tai, burned Cao's camp, and Cao's army was defeated. Cao Ren was caught off guard and was also affected by the defeat. Chang Diao and others in the river were in a dilemma, and the entire army was wiped out.

Zhong Hui also followed Zhu Huan's example and moved Wu Jun's family members to Ruxuzhou to isolate them from the outside and facilitate their care.

The effect was not bad. Fewer and fewer Wu troops surrendered, and the situation was barely stabilized.

However, out of the original 150,000 troops, there are now less than 120,000 left.

One-fifth of the soldiers defected...

Shen Ying couldn't stand it anymore, so she cupped her hands and said: "Although Ruxu is strong, there are Du Yu in the north and Wang Jun in the west. We are attacked on both sides and our army cannot move. If Wang Jun separates an army to attack Jianye, what can we do?" "

"Jianye is defended by my son Zhong Yi, Wanling is guarded by Zhou Chu, and Wang Jun's tens of thousands of troops want to raid Jianye. They are daydreaming. Generals, although the current situation is difficult, it is not a dead end. All of them are expected to When the Qin army fails, our army will defeat it with one drum, and then we will share Jiangdong equally with you!" Zhong Hui habitually drew a big pie.

However, there are many cakes and drawings, and they have never been realized, so others are indifferent.

The last person who ate Zhonghui’s pie doesn’t know whether he is alive or dead now.

What people are doing is not only watched by heaven, but also in full view of the public.

The generals had no trouble in their hearts. They looked at me and I looked at you, and responded listlessly, "Thank you, Mr. Yue."
